"Deliciously captivating! It's the perfect amount of laughs, love and drama. You won't be able to put this book down!" - Grace K @ HQ. When Agatha becomes the Everard's governess, she's grateful for a way to escape her dark past. That is until her growing feelings for the mysterious Lord of the house begin to present an even greater risk. ***** The Everard's are one of the most esteemed families in Wickhurst. And Benedict, the Lord of Devonshire and the eldest of the clan, is as mysterious and brooding as anyone The Town has ever seen. His face is marked with scars, and no one dares to speak on how he got them. Known to all as 'the beast,' the townsfolk tremble in his wake. But little does he know that he is about to meet his match in Agatha Blair, his sisters' new governess. Agatha is witty, smart and gives him a run for his money when he tries to peel back the layers of who she really is.

Revenge has never been so sweet, so irresistible, and so utterly confusing. Because come morning after the bloody wicked night, she can't remember a single thing. Can an MI6 Agent on a mission to steal a virus solve the mystery? Can a doomsday prophetess shine a light on the path to redemption? Can a delinquent street king save the day by blowing up a bridge that is nothing but an illusion? The curse is rolling even in the reverse, but maybe all she has to do to hold on, is to let go... A bewitching time through time, in one city, and in different lives. This, is Canaan. Part 1: When a British Lord decides to chase adventure in the ancient kingdom of Canaan, his curious steps lead him to discover a reality he'd never believed existed; mysterious goings on among surprisingly actively political people; and a love he was determined to build castles for. But tragedy strikes with brutal force, and time cycles a century before opportunity comes to right a terrible wrong. Sometimes, it takes more than a generation to defeat the enemy... In between: how well do you know your neighbour? Written by: Therese Essien

The Vampire of Tinkerfall (Elysium #3) by inkwellheart

Nothing goes better with tea and crumpets than corpses and monsters. ************ With hardly a moment's rest after the case of the experimental corpses, Trinket and Booker are met with a new mystery: a supposed vampire haunting the streets of Tinkerfall.

Determined to learn the identity of the bloodsucking nightwalker, Trinket throws herself into the path of danger and begins to stir up painful memories from both Elysium and her life before the asylum.

Victor Hart: Volume 1 (winner of 1st prize Litarium Steampunk Competition) by RKLawrence

In a Futurist-Victorian London, Ex-Carnie Victor Hart makes his living as a dinner party entertainer and mountebank, using the skills taught to him by his Romani mother – the Patterns. When tragedy strikes a wealthy friend, Victor Hart puts his skills to use in an alternative manner. This Steampunk London has its fair share of psychos, sickos, and sadists, and it takes a special kind of mind to hunt them. Victor sees human behaviour in a way few others can understand but only as an outsider; certain parts of his humanity are missing and that disturbs him. As he solves each seemingly unrelated case, a dark pattern slowly begins to reveal itself threatening the heart of the British Empire and even what we feel makes us human. A Steampunk-detective-noir, darker than most, the first volume features four thrilling cases; the first novel in a Duology.
